If this item in stock, then you will get an infomation E-Mail!Nine years on from their last album, The Forty Five, Scotland s Cnoc An Tursa have returned with an evocative tribute to the history, the folklore, the unique magic of their homeland.
With their characteristic blend of fierce black metal and traditional melodies they have conjured up a set of songs that bring together mourning and defiance, mystery and fear, pride and passion. It is rare for a band to return from years of silence with an album that represents a new creative peak in their story, but with A Cry For The Slain that is exactly what Cnoc An Tursa have achieved. Speaking about their aims with this album, the band have said, "With this new album we feel like we are going back to our roots with a more guitar driven style and bringing back some of the folk elements musically and lyrically which was the original inspiration for the band." And by looking back they have found the way forward, reigniting their fire and forging an album that will resonate through the years to come.[info sheet from distr.]
